After I lost my job I had to return home and am now forced to sell my cool machine.  I really do not want to let her go but I must make some sacrifices so I can pay the rest of my way through school Up for auction is my college dream car, My El Camino.  I bought this car as a freshman in college and then began  to fix her up.  I have had the clutche pack and transmission rebuilt by a local mechanic.  The Engine has been professionally reworked it has been bored, ballanced and blueprinted.  This Car is Fast.  The engine work was done so well that this car makes good power above RPM levels of your average chevy engine.  I Paid top dollar to get quality parts into the engine and you can tell it was worth it.  On the rebuild I drove the car around 20,000 miles or so (only to school and back) then got a job and had to put the car in storage.  In storage it has sat for several years while I was working up north. 

Recently I have found myself in need of money and have unlocked the storage, put a new battery in it, changed the oil, and added water and it fired right up.  I ran it for a while, the oil pressure was still strong and coolant system still functional.  The car runs really strong and has a very agressive unique sound.  I love this type of vehicle because you get a truck with the performance of a true muscle car.  The tires still hold air and car has been stored in doors.  They are a little dry and may need to be replaced soon.  Please note, The wheels that are with the car are the ones shown in the last picture.  The interior is clean and dark blue.  The bed of the truck has a spray liner and the valuable chrome lining is all there.  The paint was professionally done and is in near mint condition with the exception of a small dent on the rear tailgate (hardly noticable in in the pic and in person) 
This car is a potential show car and is sold as is. Buyer is responsible for pickup or delivery of the car. 

Any questions please feell free to ask

Good Luck and Happy Bidding

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.

Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.

2013 Chevy COPO Camaro announced with two new engines and manual option

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Chevrolet is following up the 2012 COPO Camaro with another limited run of the drag-strip-ready production car for 2013. Ditching the superchargers, the 2013 COPO Camaro can only be equipped with one of three naturally aspirated V8 engines, and other new features include the option of a manual transmission, new front springs, some minor styling changes and a lower starting price of $86,000. All cars are designed to abide by the rules of the NHRA's Stock Eliminator or Super Stock classifications, depending on in which series buyers wish to enter their Chevrolet Camaro.
Returning for 2013 is the 427-cubic-inch V8 producing 425 horsepower, but the new engines include a 325-hp 350-CID V8 and a 375-hp 396-CID V8. Buyers can select to purchase all three engines, and each will be matched with the sequence number of that car; the track-only COPO cars will not have vehicle identification numbers and can't be registered for street use.
Chevrolet is also offering unique enthusiast-specific options such as a COPO Build Book and the opportunity for owners to help assemble their car's engine at the Chevrolet Performance Build Center in Wixom, MI.
